I’m calling it finished (after i paint the ears). 😆 now on to the armor.

opted to try an airbrush for some of the weathering. Is it too heavy? I'm still trying to decide if i want to scratch it up with some sand paper too.

The resin works for well for getting rid of a lot of layer lines in the beginning.

This thread gives me hope! I'm in the process of printing everything out. Yours looks fantastic!

thats great to hear! I have been using Rustoleum gloss white and will finish up with the gloss clear coat.

I have been working on repainting my helmet. Does the finish need to be absolutely mirror glossy, or would this pass? Keep in mind, I have not applied a clear coat yet. There is still shine to the helmet, but a little bit of texture too. Do I need to wet sand or anything?

My printer crapped out on me for a while, so I took a long break from printing parts. Finally got things up and running again and have been trying to finish things. Got a good chunk coated in UV resin and smoothing will come next.

Any pros out there, could you give me some input on the chest? I’m hearing that the detail may be a bit too sharp. Should I sand it down a little?

Ender 5 plus and I am using zyltech petg. I wanted something a little more heat resistant. Shoretrooper is my next project.

Started printing out the Mr Poopie armor files. So far I have the chest front and the forearms. Chest has been coated in resin as a first layer for covering print lines. This was my first time trying that rather than bondo glazing and spot putty. Seemed a lot easier. Forearms came out with a couple of issues but will be cleaned up and should be ok.

I am looking in to soft parts now. What is the word on KriptonTop? Could their soft parts be approved for level 2?

Like a genius, I put on some of the decals prematurely. I really didn’t want to paint again, but I want it done right. This thing is going to be the death of me. 😆

Just putting the finishing touches on my Jesus Salmeron helmet. I have a little cleaning up to do, considering the visor cracked a little bit. Is my weathering too heavy?

So far so good. I picked some up from trooper bay. I ended up repainting the face portion of the helmet, so I haven't put those decals on quite yet.
